Two Years

Wow. I've been productive. Let's get right to it.

Wrapping Up DEADvent

What a haul! 

The DEADvent Calendar: Day 13!

 Merry Christmas at last!

The DEADvent Calendar: Day 12

 It's Christmas Eve, and excitement is nearing its peak!

God Damn Us Every One: A Living Dead Dolls Christmas Carol

Apologies for the shocking title. It's extreme, but we know that's what LDD is too, and it felt like a fitting edgy pun on the famous quote. All in jest. It makes me laugh, at least.

When researching LDD Minis for my Lottie extravaganza, I was surprised to discover a set that was never documented on the LDD website--Minis based on the Four Ghosts from Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol!

The DEADvent Calendar: Day 11

There's something a little sad about approaching the end of a gift calendar, because the fun is nearly all had...but Sadie's excitement prevailed.

The DEADvent Calendar: Day 10

Time for Day 10! What--or who--is it this time?

The DEADvent Calendar: Day 9

Time for Day 9!

The DEADvent Calendar: Day 8

Sadie had quite a spectacular time with Nohell, so she was wondering what could possibly follow.

Unwrapping the Antichristmas: Living Dead Dolls Variant Nohell by Mezco Toyz

The DEADvent Calendar: Day 7

It's Day 7, and...what is going on here?

The DEADvent Calendar: Day 666

 Onto the third drawer!

The DEADvent Calendar: Day 5

Time for Day 5! What could it be?

The DEADvent Calendar: Day 4

 Time for the second drawer!

The DEADvent Calendar: Day 3

It's Day 3, but first...

The DEADvent Calendar: Day 2

Time to open the chest!

The DEADvent Calendar: Day 1

Happy DEADvent! On this auspicious Friday the 13th, thirteen days of terror can commence!

Introducing Sadie's 13-Day DEADvent Calendar

I wanted to celebrate Christmas properly and get the blog festive this year to make up for the blah December I had last year.  

Cracking the Old Red Case: Investigating a Vintage Doll Trunk!

I guess I know where I got it from, because my mom kept her old toys, too. 

Yes, It's Really LEGO: The Belville Witch

The concept of "LEGO for girls" has always been fraught and I think that can be a big blinder obstructing some really interesting toy design. So what if I told you a girl LEGO happened to be one of the best-articulated tiny figure designs I've encountered?
